I was left disappointed by this, it tries to cover too much ground and leaves the reader, at least this reader, floundering. Every page needed another page of explanation. Perhaps for philosophy students this is the right level, but too many complex ideas with too little explanation for me.

This is an observation I've made re our theory group as well--we really need to stop fetishizing the theorist, treating the disparate and farflung ideas that come out of one troubled lifeworld as a unified system. Better would have been "introducing rationalism" or "empiricism" or "the categorical imperative". But these guys do give lashing this pile of skulls together into a tower and calling it Kant a game try for stupids like me.

Did the work of putting the names to the faces and to a few of their quotes. At times the book confuses more than it clarifies.
